Speaking just for myself, its not clear to me what in the aggregate of the WDK is actually 'free' and which is just there for reference purposes. I mean it could be perfectly fine and dandy for us to use it, but without the ablity to do proper due diligence, it does not seem to be worth it. Given the history of the fat patent mess, this should seem perfectly clear. Until Microsoft has the desire to clearly lay out for us what is safe to use in an open source project and what is not, I don't see why its worth the risk. -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo _______________________________________________ Ros-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.reactos.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-dev
